Of course if you want to give me one...

Always have loved them. The classic look, is un matched or rather unsurpassed with the exception of earlier period artestry found in flintlocks. Howewver I don't have any yet....

Did you ever get a PM on this or anything??? I'm in a similar situation with an old calabash, and would like to get it up and running.

Forgive me please, I'm new to BoB, and just now found this post while looking for repair tips. I've been thinking about making my own pipe for years but never have. Yours is very inspirational, I think I might give it a go. I love your design and it looks as if it would be a comfortable hold...

Yeah, please figure out what went wrong, I would like to see your creations.

Actually you can legally buy them, if they are “Pre-Embargo” but the ones that remain (yes there are still some) are extremely expensive. Of course if you’re not a US citizen and you live outside the State’s you can buy them all day long, but I wouldn’t waste my money. Most of the ones I know...

It’s hard to put a finger on (1) favorite, because for me it's a circumstantial thing. I like some RP's and definitely the Oliva series V. But… I find the consistency of the Opus X to be bothersome (@#!-Ducks flying objects), sorry but in my opinion it’s true. I think they used to be better...

Just smoked a bowl of Maltese Falcon. I like it a lot. Had a nice full flavor and when I first opened the can it kinda smelled like extra smokey beef jerky. Yesterday I had mentoned I was at a tobacco shop loking for Billy Budd and they didn't carry it, so I brought home Samuel Gawith Balkan...

OMG! there, that's my texting slang; Captain and Coke! I was introduced to that a few years back, I'd say 1984 when I was stationed in El Toro. I liked it A LOT!, so a couple of years later my squadron was in Japan and I introduced my fellow Marines in my work center, and before I knew it...

Here's where a good relationship with your local tobacconist, is seriously important. I give NO credence to cigar ratings. I do look at the flavor and aeromatic profiles listed but ratings are for the most part too subjective.

I'm partial to more full bodied sticks. Bout to stoke up an Oliva V.

Damn! I just blew a smoke ring, and have no clue how. I've tried off on on for 20 some years with no success, and I just did it by accident.

Anybody like Bushmills and Gingerale "Vernors" preferably, while enjoying a pipe or cigar? I've heard some people say you shouldn't drink anything carbonated while smoking, but I really enjoy that combanation. Got a nice full flavored stout right now, with an unnamed aeromatic, pretty good mix.

I don't know. :oops: It's an unmarked aeromatic blend, that is so-so to ok, burns a bit hot though. I got it at my tobbaconist befor I left on a business trip and forgot what the hell it is, so I have to wait till I get back home to find out. At least I'm smoking something... In michigan I...

Not well. But I like it, so....

I am sorry for your loss.

I'm from thr Flint area, although I work way down in Livonia... One heck of a drive everyday; 65 mile each way.

Well I had to try it... I heard severl bad reviews but since I'm a total noob when it comes to what is "real" (as in not captain black)- or the only blend I have used for years -pier 26- an aromatic vanilla blend. It wasn't bad as far as my taste goes. It seemed to have more flavor than the...

Hey Zach, yeah I've already asked a couple of questions and everyone has been very helpful. I'm very greatful to everyone. For having smoke for as long as I have I am uterly amazed at how much I do not know. That's why this site is crucial to my development.

Well I tried my hand at the "Fold" method with the Navy Flake. I am utterly shocked it worked the first time for me. And I had a very enjoyable drive home. I was alarmed at first because the draw seemed too loose or light, I kept thinking it was about to go out because if I had a regular loose...
